A magnetic field generation control unit and a magnetron sputtering apparatus and method using the magnetic field generation control circuit. The magnetic field generation control unit includes a magnetic field generator for providing a specific magnetic field to a target consisting of a metal material to be deposited on a substrate, and a magnetic field generator control module electrically connected with the magnetic field generator, receiving an electrical signal from outside, and selectively supplying a current capable of generating the magnetic field to the magnetic field generator. The target is prevented from being magnetized when a sputtering process is not performed, and the magnetic field is generated from the target when the process is performed. Consequently, it is possible to perform uniform deposition on the substrate.
